Does CNN realize we are a Christian nation?

I think the leadership 'became theists' and the rank and file 'stayed religious' is too simple.

It is DISTILLED. I wrote a post---not a dissertation. In any case--the issue was
not "stay religious"----it is more a matter of continuing the FAMILY THING.
Theists, Deists, Unitarians---even (gawd help us) episcopalians and lutherans
can be "religious"

 

[irosie91]

Now the MAGA want to punish the Episcopalians for not supporting the white Africans on upgraded immigration?

The sure shows a separation of Church and State. Jesus have mercy.

Jesus never heard of an "episcopalian". I am reminded of a kid in the ER (hospital
emergency room) --asked his religion he said "episcopalian----don't ask me to
spell it."

Not the Episcopalians, I don't think. But they do try to stay ethical. Now don't mess with the north Anglicans. Some of them will make Westboro look far too liberal.

Jesus never heard of a Roman Catholic or a presbyter. So what? If he is a God, He knows his own.

In this country of ours, being a Christian is a good thing. In this country of ours, being a nationalist is a good thing. CNN tries to paint this as if it's a bad thing.

Being a good Christian means supporting a man who committed adultery against three wives.

Being a good Christian means supporting a man who steals from cancer kids.

Being a good Christian means supporting a man who created a fake "university" to steal the life savings of the elderly.

Being a good Christian means supporting a man who sleeps with porn whores.

Being a good Christian means supporting a man who built gambling houses.

Being a good Christian means supporting a man who bears false witness against others on nearly a daily basis.

Being a good Christian means supporting a man who made his wealthy by cheating investors, banks, insurance companies, and the elderly and cancer kids.

Being a good Christian means supporting a man who attempted to overthrow our democracy because the megalomaniac is too weak to handle losing.

Being a good Christian means being so thoroughly corrupted by this man that you don't even so much as blink when another porn whore endorses him on national television at his nominating convention.


Democrat Donald Trump invaded the Republican Party to destroy it from within.

He has completely compromised your moral code and replaced it with hate.



Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image.

Thou shalt not take the Lord thy God's name in vain.

Remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy.

Honor thy father and mother.

Thy shalt not kill (murder)

Thou shalt not commit adultery.

Thou shalt not steal.

Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor.

Thou shalt not covet.


One out of ten ain't bad!


All you hypocrites have left is trannies and brown people.

The Episcopalians seem to me to share something with their Episcopalian
ancestors. They seemed to imagine that by breaking away from the
Anglican KING----they were turning "modern"-----they have, lately, devolved
into vacuous hippies

"Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. You will know them by their fruits."

Those who were penitent and gave up their sinful lives, yes.

Trump is not penitent, not by any stretch of the imagination.

And whenever some dipshit tries to find a loophole for Trump, I like to call up their previous posts about Clinton and Biden and Obama and Democrats in general.

So don't give me that hypocritical bullshit.

According to a 2023 Gallup survey, about 67% of the U.S. population, or 224 million people, identify as Christian. This makes the United States the country with the largest Christian population in the world.

No problem with Christians,
What about our country's choice, to allow All of us to pick our own religion. or none at all?

Since Trump's first term, the number of people who have stopped going to church entirely has skyrocketed.

Americans can smell the hypocritical stench of MAGA Christians from a mile away.

I see Trump as a man ----to cite the maudlin----seeking redemption by
bringing the US out of its economic slump

No excuse for Trump or those lumpkins who support him.

No we are not. We are not a theocracy. Those never end well.

Avalon Project - The Barbary Treaties 1786-1816 - Treaty of Peace and Friendship, Signed at Tripoli November 4, 1796

ARTICLE 11.​

As the government of the United States of America is not in any sense founded on the Christian Religion,-as it has in itself no character of enmity against the laws, religion or tranquility of Musselmen,-and as the said States never have entered into any war or act of hostility against any Mehomitan nation, it is declared by the parties that no pretext arising from religious opinions shall ever produce an interruption of the harmony existing between the two countries.

no excuse for the EPISCOPALIANS whose ancestors supported the thieving mass murderer--
OLIVER CROMWELL. No excuse for the descendants of the CRUSADERS who rendered
Jerusalem knee deep in blood.

Trump has converted MAGA "Christians" into goats. It's almost as if that is exactly what the New York Democrat set out to do.



"But when the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then he will sit on the throne of his glory. Before him all the nations will be gathered, and he will separate them one from another, as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. He will set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left. Then the King will tell those on his right hand, ‘Come, blessed of my Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world; for I was hungry, and you gave me food to eat. I was thirsty, and you gave me drink. I was a stranger, and you took me in. I was naked, and you clothed me. I was sick, and you visited me. I was in prison, and you came to me.’

“Then the righteous will answer him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry, and feed you; or thirsty, and give you a drink? When did we see you as a stranger, and take you in; or naked, and clothe you? When did we see you sick, or in prison, and come to you?’

“The King will answer them, ‘Most certainly I tell you, because you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.’ Then he will say also to those on the left hand, ‘Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire which is prepared for the devil and his angels; for I was hungry, and you didn’t give me food to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave me no drink; I was a stranger, and you didn’t take me in; naked, and you didn’t clothe me; sick, and in prison, and you didn’t visit me.’

“Then they will also answer, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and didn’t help you?’

“Then he will answer them, saying, ‘Most certainly I tell you, because you didn’t do it to one of the least of these, you didn’t do it to me.’ These will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.” — Matthew 25:31-46.

Does that mean there is no excuse for white people since their ancestors had slaves?

Jesus didn't speak English, either, and yet every American church has an English language Bible.

I really don't see your point.

The Anglicans, the forerunner of American Episcopalians, supported the Crown.

The presbryterians and neo-evangelicals and dissenters supported Cromwell.
